First class work here. I agree on the paint, it’s kinda lackluster, but staying true to the original is the way to go in some cases. That vice truly looks like it was never used. The jaws are level and sharp and from what I could see there was almost no evidence of wear on the internal parts. I currently use a vintage Millers Falls #18 mini swivel base which is great because of its unique mounting set up, but it’s got smooth fixed jaws. I’ve used it for years and will always keep it around but I will have my eye out for one of these as it looks a little more suited for heavier work and built a little stronger with a similar footprint as my MF. Keep up the great work, I could watch these vids all day haha

Wow Beautiful restoration! It does in fact look like it was unused and now it looks like Wilton intended it to look in 1960 👍 I agree, Sage isn’t as nice a color as the verde green, but you kept it period original. Love those baby Wiltons. Lovely job 👍

I think the Rust-Oleum Hammered Light Blue is the closest color you can find now that the Verde Green is discontinued. The light green is also close but not a close as the light blue.

Dang, hell of a find, great condition for restoring. I'm dealing with a 3.5" deadlocked with rust, probably been buried or something. I'll try electrolysis tomorrow and then try to take it apart with an hydraulic jack. The hardest vise project I've had to this day. But every wilton is worth the effort!

Nice job sir! Beautiful. Quick question.. I noticed the third mounting hole is at the front of your Vice after you rebuilt it. Is that the correct position for that third mounting hole? It seems like it should at the rear of the vise
@wyattsdad8561
4 ай бұрын
The reason I’m asking is because I just finished restoring my Wilton Cadet Vice and I can’t recall where that third hole was supposed to go, front or back. It makes more sense to me to put it at the rear. But if I have it facing the rear, the vise doesn’t swivel equally on both sides. Which seems weird to me. Thanks man.
@garageshopminnesota

Thank you for watching. You are correct, the third mounting hole should be in the back. I just happened to have the swivel base in that orientation, and didn't notice it until after the video was released.

Watching this is killing me you sanded down the original part instead of your $.89 part now if a collector wanted this beautiful vise it can't be put back to original because you ground the dust cap opening oversize. it's $5 for an original dust cap you cheapskate.
